How Greatful?

I was reading the Bible in Mark 17:11-19 about the story of ten lepers. As Jesus went through a city the ten lepers met Him and asked Him to have mercy on them and their condition. Jesus told them to show themselves to the priest and as they walked that way they were healed of the leprosy. One leper realizing he was healed ran back to Jesus and fell at His feet and worshipped Him. Jesus asked him where the other nine men were and said that only this stranger has come back to give glory to God. So the Lord told the stranger to go for your faith has made you whole.

Where are you and where am I? Are we like the man who came back to worship the Lord after being healed and cleansed or are we like the other nine who just walked away? Makes you think doesn't it!! What about the other nine, did they stay cleansed?

I pray you choose Christ and live and you walk away knowing that faith in Jesus Christ has made you whole.
